4Removal and replacement procedures
Preliminary replacement requirements
Tools required
You will need the following tools to complete the removal and replacement procedures:
Flat-bladed screwdriver
●
Magnetic screwdriver
●
Phillips P0 and P1 screwdrivers
●
Service considerations
The following sections include some of the considerations that you must keep in mind during
disassembly and assembly procedures.
NOTE:As you remove each subassembly from the computer, place the subassembly (and all
accompanying screws) away from the work area to prevent damage.
Plastic parts
CAUTION:Using excessive force during disassembly and reassembly can damage plastic parts.
Use care when handling the plastic parts. Apply pressure only at the points designated in the
maintenance instructions.
Preliminary replacement requirements
29
Cables and connectors
CAUTION:When servicing the device, be sure that cables are placed in their proper locations
during the reassembly process. Improper cable placement can damage the device.
Cables must be handled with extreme care to avoid damage. Apply only the tension required to
unseat or seat the cables during removal and insertion. Handle cables by the connector whenever
possible. In all cases, avoid bending, twisting, or tearing cables. Be sure that cables are routed in
such a way that they cannot be caught or snagged by parts being removed or replaced. Handle flex
cables with extreme care; these cables tear easily.
Drive handling
CAUTION:Drives are fragile components that must be handled with care. To prevent damage to
the device, damage to a drive, or loss of information, observe these precautions:
Before removing or inserting a hard drive, shut down the device. If you are unsure whether the device
is off or in Hibernation, turn the device on, and then shut it down through the operating system.
Before handling a drive, be sure that you are discharged of static electricity. While handling a drive,
avoid touching the connector.
Handle drives on surfaces covered with at least one inch of shock-proof foam.
Avoid dropping drives from any height onto any surface.
After removing a hard drive, an optical drive, or a diskette drive, place it in a static-proof bag.
Avoid exposing a hard drive to products that have magnetic fields, such as monitors or speakers.
Avoid exposing a drive to temperature extremes or liquids.
If a drive must be mailed, place the drive in a bubble pack mailer or other suitable form of protective
packaging and label the package “FRAGILE.”
30Chapter 4 Removal and replacement procedures
Grounding guidelines
Electrostatic discharge damage
Electronic components are sensitive to electrostatic discharge (ESD). Circuitry design and structure
determine the degree of sensitivity. Networks built into many integrated circuits provide some
protection, but in many cases, ESD contains enough power to alter device parameters or melt
silicon junctions.
A discharge of static electricity from a finger or other conductor can destroy static-sensitive devices or
microcircuitry. Even if the spark is neither felt nor heard, damage may have occurred.
An electronic device exposed to ESD may not be affected at all and can work perfectly throughout a
normal cycle. Or the device may function normally for a while, then degrade in the internal layers,
reducing its life expectancy.
CAUTION:To prevent damage to the device when you are removing or installing internal
components, observe these precautions:
Keep components in their electrostatic-safe containers until you are ready to install them.
Use nonmagnetic tools.
Before touching an electronic component, discharge static electricity by using the guidelines
described in this section.
Avoid touching pins, leads, and circuitry. Handle electronic components as little as possible.
If you remove a component, place it in an electrostatic-safe container.
The following table shows how humidity affects the electrostatic voltage levels generated by different
activities.
CAUTION:A product can be degraded by as little as 700 V.

Packaging and transporting guidelines
Follow these grounding guidelines when packaging and transporting equipment:
To avoid hand contact, transport products in static-safe tubes, bags, or boxes.
●
Protect ESD-sensitive parts and assemblies with conductive or approved containers or
●
packaging.
Keep ESD-sensitive parts in their containers until the parts arrive at static-free workstations.
●
Place items on a grounded surface before removing items from their containers.
●
Always be properly grounded when touching a component or assembly.
●
Store reusable ESD-sensitive parts from assemblies in protective packaging or nonconductive
●
foam.
Use transporters and conveyors made of antistatic belts and roller bushings. Be sure that
●
mechanized equipment used for moving materials is wired to ground and that proper materials
are selected to avoid static charging. When grounding is not possible, use an ionizer to dissipate
electric charges.
Workstation guidelines
Follow these grounding workstation guidelines:
Cover the workstation with approved static-shielding material.
●
Use a wrist strap connected to a properly grounded work surface and use properly grounded
●
tools and equipment.
Use conductive field service tools, such as cutters, screwdrivers, and vacuums.
●
When fixtures must directly contact dissipative surfaces, use fixtures made only of static-safe
●
materials.
Keep the work area free of nonconductive materials, such as ordinary plastic assembly aids and
●
Styrofoam.
Handle ESD-sensitive components, parts, and assemblies by the case or PCM laminate. Handle
●
these items only at static-free workstations.
Avoid contact with pins, leads, or circuitry.
●
Turn off power and input signals before inserting or removing connectors or test equipment.
●
32Chapter 4 Removal and replacement procedures
Equipment guidelines
Grounding equipment must include either a wrist strap or a foot strap at a grounded workstation.
When seated, wear a wrist strap connected to a grounded system. Wrist straps are flexible
●
straps with a minimum of one megohm ±10% resistance in the ground cords. To provide proper
ground, wear a strap snugly against the skin at all times. On grounded mats with banana-plug
connectors, use alligator clips to connect a wrist strap.
When standing, use foot straps and a grounded floor mat. Foot straps (heel, toe, or boot straps)
●
can be used at standing workstations and are compatible with most types of shoes or boots. On
conductive floors or dissipative floor mats, use foot straps on both feet with a minimum of one
megohm resistance between the operator and ground. To be effective, the conductive strips
must be worn in contact with the skin.
The following grounding equipment is recommended to prevent electrostatic damage:
Antistatic tape
●
Antistatic smocks, aprons, and sleeve protectors
●
Conductive bins and other assembly or soldering aids
●
Nonconductive foam
●
Conductive tabletop workstations with ground cords of one megohm resistance
●
Static-dissipative tables or floor mats with hard ties to the ground
●
Field service kits
●
Static awareness labels
●
Material-handling packages
●
Nonconductive plastic bags, tubes, or boxes
●
Metal tote boxes
●

7Backup and recovery
Recovery discs
●
Performing a system recovery
●
Backing up your information
●
Recovery after a system failure is as good as your most recent backup. HP recommends that you
create recovery discs immediately after software setup. As you add new software and data files, you
should continue to back up your system on a regular basis to maintain a reasonably current backup.
Tools provided by the operating system and HP Recovery Manager software are designed to help
you with the following tasks for safeguarding your information and restoring it in case of a computer
failure:
Creating a set of recovery discs (Recovery Manager software feature)
●
Backing up your information
●
Creating system restore points
●
Recovering a program or driver
●
Performing a full system recovery (from the partition or recovery discs)
●
NOTE:Recovery discs have been included if your computer does not have a partition. Use
these discs to recover your operating system and software. To check for the presence of a
recovery partition, click Start, right-click Computer, click Manage, and then click Disk
Management. If the partition is present, an HP Recovery drive is listed in the window.
Recovery discs
HP recommends that you create recovery discs to be sure that you can restore your computer to its
original factory state if the hard drive fails, or if for any reason you cannot recover using the recovery
partition tools. Create these discs after setting up the computer for the first time.
Handle these discs carefully and keep them in a safe place. The software allows the creation of only
one set of recovery discs.
78Chapter 7 Backup and recovery
NOTE:If your computer does not include an integrated optical drive, you can use an optional
external optical drive (purchased separately) to create recovery discs, or you can purchase recovery
discs for your computer from the HP Web site. If you use an external optical drive, it must be
connected directly to a USB port on the computer, not to a USB port on an external device, such as a
USB hub.
Guidelines:
Purchase high-quality DVD-R, DVD+R, BD-R (writable Blu-ray), or CD-R discs. DVDs and BDs
●
have a much higher storage capacity than CDs. If you use CDs, up to 20 discs may be required,
whereas only a few DVDs or BDs are required.
NOTE:Read-write discs, such as CD-RW, DVD±RW, double-layer DVD±RW, and BD-RE
(rewritable Blu-ray) discs, are not compatible with the Recovery Manager software.
The computer must be connected to AC power during this process.
●
Only one set of recovery discs can be created per computer.
●
Number each disc before inserting it into the optical drive.
●
If necessary, you can exit the program before you have finished creating the recovery discs. The
●
next time you open Recovery Manager, you will be prompted to continue the disc creation
process.
Recovery Manager software allows you to repair or restore the computer to its original factory state.
Recovery Manager works from recovery discs or from a dedicated recovery partition (select models
only) on the hard drive.
Note the following when performing a system recovery:
You can recover only files that you have previously backed up. HP recommends that you use
●
HP Recovery Manager to create a set of recovery discs (entire drive backup) as soon as you set
up the computer.
Windows has its own built-in repair features, such as System Restore. If you have not already
●
tried these features, try them before using Recovery Manager.
Recovery Manager recovers only software that was preinstalled at the factory. Software not
●
provided with this computer must be downloaded from the manufacturer's Web site or reinstalled
from the disc provided by the manufacturer.
Performing a system recovery
79
Recovering using the dedicated recovery partition (select models only)
On some models, you can perform a recovery from the partition on the hard drive, accessed by
clicking Start or pressing the f11 key. This type of recovery restores the computer to its factory
condition without using recovery discs.
To restore the computer from the partition, follow these steps:
1.Access Recovery Manager in either of the following ways:
Turn on or restart the computer, and then press esc while the “Press the ESC key for
●
Startup Menu” message is displayed at the bottom of the screen. Then, press f11 while the
“F11 (HP Recovery)” message is displayed on the screen.
2.Click System Recovery in the Recovery Manager window.
3.Follow the on-screen instructions.
80Chapter 7 Backup and recovery
Recovering using the recovery discs
1.If possible, back up all personal files.
2.Insert the first recovery disc into the optical drive on your computer or an optional external
optical drive, and then restart the computer.
3.Follow the on-screen instructions.
Backing up your information
You should back up your computer files on a regular schedule to maintain a current backup. You can
back up your information to an optional external hard drive, a network drive, or discs. Back up your
system at the following times:
At regularly scheduled times
●
NOTE:Set reminders to back up your information periodically.
Before the computer is repaired or restored
●
Before you add or modify hardware or software
●
Guidelines:
Create system restore points using the Windows System Restore feature, and periodically copy
●
them to an optical disc or an external hard drive. For more information on using system restore
points, refer to
Store personal files in the Documents library and back up this folder periodically.
●
Save customized settings in a window, toolbar, or menu bar by taking a screen shot of your
●
settings. The screen shot can be a time-saver if you have to reset your preferences.
Using system restore points on page 82.
Using Windows Backup and Restore
Windows Backup and Restore allows you to back up individual files or back up the entire computer
image.
Guidelines:
Be sure that the computer is connected to AC power before you start the backup process.
●
Allow enough time to complete the backup process. Depending on file sizes, it may take over an
●
hour.
To create a backup:
1.Select Start > Control Panel > System and Security > Backup and Restore.
2.Follow the on-screen instructions to schedule and create a backup.
NOTE:Windows includes the User Account Control feature to improve the security of the computer.
You may be prompted for your permission or password for tasks such as installing software, running
utilities, or changing Windows settings. Refer to Help and Support for more information.
Backing up your information
81
Using system restore points
A system restore point allows you to save and name a snapshot of your hard drive at a specific point
in time. You can then recover back to that point if you want to reverse subsequent changes.
NOTE:Recovering to an earlier restore point does not affect data files saved or e-mails created
since the last restore point.
You also can create additional restore points to provide increased protection for your files and
settings.
When to create restore points
Before you add or extensively modify software or hardware
●
Periodically, whenever the computer is functioning optimally
●
NOTE:If you revert to a restore point and then change your mind, you can reverse the restoration.
